Hi Gary, I wil get into more details later... 1. But the only waffenfarbes I know of (off the top of my head) are: Admin- Dark Green (available... dependant on level and rank) Air Traffic Control- Light green(Scarce) Judical- Wine Red(Most difficult to find and VERY expensive) 2. You are correct about the tab pipings in relation to the four levels. Each level does have a lowest as well as highest obtainable rank. Again, I will have to consult my books later. 3. It is possible for some ranks to be equal amoung the various levels... for example, it is possible to see a Lt ranking in the Highest level and in the Elevated level. The example you gave with the Major is a correct one. There is even a Reserve Administrative tab that I saw in vol 2! (with blue secondary piping) that I never knew existed! I would love to find one of those! I beleive that the Admin field could be a collecting focus of it's own! There are tons!
